Post by QuadiblocOne of the long-term consequences of global warming is a rise in sea level.However, I just saw this article about how the ocean is being swallowed up by theEarth's mantle!https://www.livescience.com/65678-deep-water-cycle-sinking-ocean.html?utm_source=ls-newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20190610-lsBut the article notes this won't save us from global warming, because the fall insea level from it is on the order of 1/10,000 of the rise from melting glaciers.If it's that small an effect, why does the article imply we're all doomed becausethe oceans are going dry?
